Chapter 389 388. Who wouldn’t feel dizzy after seeing this number? The competition will be even more brutal next week! (Please subscribe)
Singers from all over the world, as well as many producers and other music professionals, all felt that they were living in fear of being dominated by Wang Qian this week.
On the third day of this week.
The download sales of Wang Qian's single viva la vida have exceeded 200 million, leaving the second-place Kristen with a gap of 40 million.
All singers and other producers in the European and American music scene know that it is unlikely that they will be able to surpass Wang Qian in the near future.
Wang Qian has already won the world's music and pop music scene since he defeated Christine head-on this week. As long as he performs normally.
If he maintains the quality of his subsequent performances, then the fans who have been conquered by him will continue to pay for his songs, and there will not be a sharp decline, unless the quality of his works collapses.
but.
On the fifth day, the top five products on the list all had sales of over 100 million.
Pop singers from all over the world are excited again.
Such a flourishing era of pop music...
Isn’t this what many big-name singers are most looking forward to?
Isn't it time for them to come out and reap the market? No matter how much Wang Qian's sales are, it's enough for them to make more money.
Many big-name singers have plans to release songs more frequently.
The song release plans of so many big-name singers have further stimulated the activity of the pop music market. Many onlookers have become more interested in the future pop music market when they see so many singers releasing songs at the same time.
Many hands make light work! The same is true for expanding the market.
By the weekend, the long numbers on the sales charts tell all musicians to come and make some money!
Wang Qian, who ranks at the top, has made all singers and musicians give up the idea of chasing him, because he is too far away. Now they just want to release songs quickly to catch up with this wave of dividends. They don’t ask to defeat Wang Qian, just to get a share of the profits.
By Sunday afternoon.
Wang Qian's single, which topped the list, has sold more than 280 million copies, and was only less than 20 million away from breaking the terrifying sales record of 300 million in a single week. However, the sales began to decline sharply in the following days, so it did not break through the 300 million weekly sales record.
Which musician wouldn’t feel dizzy after seeing this number?
Since the advent of digital music downloads, there have not been many singles with total sales of over 200 million.
What's more, 200 million in a single week was something they had never dared to imagine before.
However, what makes many European and American singers feel relieved and see a glimmer of hope is.
Kristen, who ranked second, also had cumulative sales of a terrifying 220 million singles. Although she was left behind by Wang Qian by 60 million in sales, she also created an incredible record of over 100 million and 200 million sales in a single week, raising the ceiling of the European and American pop music scene and becoming the first person in the history of the European and American pop music scene to not be left too far behind by Wang Qian.
There is no doubt that although Kristen lost to Wang Qian, she is still the undisputed number one in the European and American music scene, and is someone that other European and American singers need to look up to.
Many people understand that Christine's sales are actually due to Wang Qian and the World Championship. The company's publicity team behind her tied her completely to Wang Qian and the World Championship for publicity, which is why she has achieved such incredible sales.
This makes all other European and American singers jealous! Sophie, who ranks third, also has a terrible sales volume. The cumulative sales have exceeded 160 million so far, and she is not far from the threshold of 200 million sales in a single week. Maybe she will become the second singer in the European and American music scene after Christine to create 200 million sales in a single week.
The whole world has witnessed Sophie's terrifying strength and incredible potential for the future, and her future ceiling may be even higher than Christine.
Adam is still fourth on the list. He has secured the fourth place, with cumulative sales reaching over 140 million, which is definitely a great success. Just from this week's sales share, Adam's wealth has exceeded his parents' lifetime accumulation. He is definitely a winner, and has completely proved himself in the European and American music scene.
Elizabeth, who ranked fifth, has always had a sales volume close to Adam. Even now, the difference is only more than 10 million sales. The total sales volume has reached 130 million, which has also proved her strength. With her current sales volume, she has become the singer with the highest weekly sales in the history of English pop music, and she can be in the top ten in the world! Miyuki Nakamori, who ranked sixth, also set a sales record for Japanese singers in the world, with cumulative sales reaching more than 110 million. Like Elizabeth, she has also become the singer with the highest weekly sales in the country's pop music scene. Even Jiuyue Yoneda, the current number one king-level singer in the Japanese pop music scene, has not achieved this.
The singers ranked seventh are the most envied and even jealous of all singers in the European and American music scene! In the past, if a song could only rank seventh on the Billboard charts in the first week of its release, for superstars, even if it was a failure, for them, at least being in the top three was considered normal performance, and being ranked first was considered a success.
However, the single of the little queen Ally was only ranked seventh, which made all the other kings, queens and singers in the world very envious, even jealous! Because, even though Ally's single was ranked seventh, it also created a terrifying achievement of over 100 million sales in a single week. By the weekend, the cumulative sales exceeded 100 million, reaching more than 101 million. She became the fourth singer in the history of European and American pop music to sell over 100 million in a single week.
Of course, in the world music scene, if Wang Qian and Nakamori Miyuki are included, Ally can only be the seventh in the history of world pop music to have sales of over 100 million in a single week...
However, being ranked in the top ten in the entire history of pop music is definitely a record that will go down in history, and both his status and popularity have skyrocketed.
This week's sales chart will definitely be remembered in the entire history of pop music. Even decades or hundreds of years later, people will talk about it, and Ally will also be mentioned.
Others, such as Wang Qian, Christine, Sophie, Adam, Elizabeth, Miyuki Nakamori and others, could only envy but could not feel the slightest jealousy.
This is because the first six have world-class talent and strength, and they also have the bonus of the World Championship, which cannot be replicated.
Only Ellie, in their opinion, did not have the strength and qualifications to compare with the previous six people. She was purely a lucky lucky person and caught up with the favorable conditions and the explosion of the pop music market this week, so she was able to achieve such high sales.
It makes other big-name singers feel like they can do it too.
Therefore, many musicians, music critics, and even singers publicly criticized Ally's works as the worst and unworthy of such high sales.
However, Ellie didn't care about this at all. She was busy cooperating with the company's publicity, hoping to further increase sales and create a higher record to keep it up, so as not to be surpassed next week.
The sales of the top seven titles all reached hundreds of millions on Sunday, shocking the world.
Jonathan, who ranked eighth, has accumulated sales of 85 million. Although he has no hope of breaking 100 million, he has also created the highest single-week sales of a German pop singer in the world, making him the hottest figure in the German pop music scene.
The ninth and tenth place were also occupied by Miyuki Nakamori, who finally secured the top ten position, maintaining the record of having three songs in the top ten at the same time. Moreover, the sales of both songs were not low, reaching about 80 million, which was not much inferior to Jonathan!
Many people ignored Miyuki Nakamori and were shocked by the terrifying sales of Wang Qian and Kristen.
In fact, Miyuki Nakamori has set a record! That is, three singles entered the top ten at the same time. She is the third person in the world to do this in the past ten years. The first is Kristen, and the second is Wang Qian, who just occupied the top three last week.
Only the media of the island country promoted it crazily in China, while the media of other countries in the world just briefly mentioned Miyuki Nakamori's achievements and did not pay much attention to them.
Therefore, the Japanese media calls Miyuki Nakamori an underestimated genius.
The English media also called Elizabeth an underestimated genius.
The French media also called Sophie an underestimated genius...
Many media in North America also praised Adam as an underestimated talent...
seem!
Except for Wang Qian, the other contestants are all underestimated talents.
but.
Everyone knows.
No matter how incredible the works on the pop music charts this week have achieved, they are already in the past and may not be the most dazzling.
because.
A new week is about to begin.
Because, the semi-finals of the Voice of China World Championship will begin tonight! Because!
Tonight, Wang Qian, Sophie, Adam and Elizabeth will all have three carefully prepared performances, which will surely be wonderful!
Also because.
Tomorrow, more world-class superstars will release new songs and join the competition on the pop charts, and the number of other first- and second-tier singers will also far exceed this week.
Everyone knows that next week's competition will be even more intense, and it can even be said to be the most competitive week in the history of pop music.
However, the four most popular contestants of The Voice of China World Championship will each release three works.
Everyone is curious! What will the three works of these four players achieve next week? The four players have the terrifying popularity bonus of the world competition, and the results will definitely not be bad. The sales of all the players in the past few weeks have proved this.
The Los Angeles Music News asked a question: Will Wang Qian continue his record of having three songs occupy the top three positions on the charts next week? Will the sales of the three songs break the single-week sales of more than 280 million this week? When this question was raised, everyone was shocked.
All singers and musicians remembered the fear that Wang Qian’s three rock singles dominated the world last week, creating a record that no one in the history of pop music has ever done, that is, three singles of the same person simultaneously occupied the top three positions on the charts. This has never been done in history, and it represents Wang Qian’s strong dominance over the pop music scene in this era.
A famous producer said, "Although this week has created the most horrific sales record in the history of pop music, with the top seven songs all having sales of over 100 million, there is no doubt that next week's sales will be even more horrific. Wang Qian's three songs will definitely have sales of over 100 million, there is no doubt about that. With Sophie's popularity, quality of her works, and talent, perhaps three of her works will also have sales of over 100 million, which would make six works. Adam and Elizabeth will also have at least one work with sales of over 100 million, right? Then that would make eight positions."
"According to the inside information I know, Kristen will release another single next week, so this one will definitely sell over 100 million copies! I don't know about the others, but I am sure that on the charts next week, at least the top nine will sell over 100 million copies. How terrifying is that?"
"The only question is whether Wang Qian can continue to create the record of occupying the top three positions for three songs at the same time. And, can Christine continue to threaten Wang Qian's sales? Or even achieve the achievement of defeating Wang Qian?"
"Are there other superstars who have released works, as well as many first- and second-tier singers, going to have a chance to explode and also create sales of over 100 million?"
"Let's wait and see! Next week may truly be the most brilliant week in the history of pop music."
The speech of this big-name producer was praised by many people.
Many people are looking forward to the song that will be released next week.
This resulted in other entertainment activities being neglected.
Data shows that this week's global box office revenue is more than 20 percent lower than the same period last year.
The ratings of other TV dramas and variety shows are also lower than the same period in previous years.
The number of online users of other video software, reading software, etc. has also declined a lot.
Only the ratings and attention of The Voice of China World Competition set new records...
Everyone likes listening to music more and pays more attention to the pop music scene.
…
Kristen has also been busy in the studio this week, recording two singles straight after each other.
This was extremely fast for her.
In the past, it was considered fast for her to complete the recording of a single in a month.
This week, she quickly completed the recording of two singles, which even she did not expect.
The most important thing.
She is very satisfied with both singles.
Agent Sharon said excitedly, "Chris, are we going to announce the news now?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Up to now, Kristen has not announced the news of releasing a song next week.
Of course, the agent and the company want to announce it early so as to hype it up and let more people know about it.
However, Christine disagrees.
Her literary and artistic thinking made her not want to take advantage of Wang Qian's popularity too much, as that would make her feel that a considerable part of her sales performance was due to Wang Qian, and not entirely due to the appeal of her own works.
So, she stopped the company's promotion plan and decided to announce the song release plan on the last day.
The company did not dare to go against Christine at this time.
One reason is that they don't dare. Although Kristen has not maintained the top spot in sales for the first time, she has also created an incredible record. Her sales volume has exceeded 200 million in a single week, and her ability to make money has increased by several levels compared to before. No matter whether it is the agency or the record company, they dare not offend Kristen in the slightest.
Another reason is that they are afraid of affecting Kristen's creative state! If Kristen is in a bad mood and has no inspiration, she may just take a break for a few months, and then miss the bonus of the pop music market explosion in this wave of world games.
No one knows how long this wave of pop music market boom will last, but no one believes it will continue forever. Sooner or later it will end and cool down.
This outbreak was caused by the World Championship and Wang Qian, so everyone instinctively thought that it might last until the end of the World Championship.
Therefore, now both the agency and the record company are eager to support Christine, giving her whatever she wants and agreeing to any request she makes.
Sharon brought a few assistants to serve Christine carefully every day and meet all her requirements.
The evening is approaching and the world competition performance is about to begin.
This week is about to end, and the song will be released after midnight.
There is no promotion yet...
The company is anxious.
So Sharon had to remind Christine carefully.
Kristen stood in front of the machine, holding the headset in one hand and plugging the other into her ear, listening to the new song she had just finished recording today. She listened carefully to the music and the sound in it, and almost forgot about Sharon and others beside her. She didn't hear what Sharon said and continued to listen to the music attentively.
Sharon didn't dare to speak and could only stand quietly at the back and wait. No matter how anxious she was, she didn't dare to interrupt Christine who was concentrating!
It lasted for a full five minutes.
Christine put down her headphones.
Sharon hurriedly reminded again: "Chris, are we going to announce the release of the song?"
Kristen nodded: "Okay, just announce it directly, I will release two songs at a time."
Sharon was stunned and said quickly, "Should we release one song a week? This way, we can have works on the market in the next few weeks."
The company does not want to miss any of the market dividends in the past few weeks and hopes that Christine will continue to release a work every week.
Christine shook her head: "It's already been produced, so let's release it together. I have completed two more works. I will take a day off tomorrow, and ask them to continue working the day after tomorrow, and continue recording next week!"
This week, Christine was in a period of bursting inspiration and completed two very satisfying works.
Sharon said excitedly, "Okay, I'll take care of everything for you! Now do you need a break?"
Christine looked at the time and shook her head: "No, I'll just rest here for a while and then go directly to the Staples Center!"
Sharon was surprised: "You're going to watch the show at the World Championships?"
Christine smiled and said expectantly, "Of course, who would miss Professor Wang Qian's performance? The whole world says that this is a performance not to be missed, and I won't miss it either."
Sharon frowned, "But you barely slept last night."
Christine smiled and said, "It doesn't have any impact. I can sleep for twenty hours tonight and tomorrow morning, which is plenty of time to sleep. But if I miss Wang Qian's performance, then I really miss it. Have you booked the tickets for me? The closest seats..."
Sharon nodded. "It's been booked a long time ago. I thought you would take a rest tonight and not go to the scene, so I planned to sell it. Now in the second-hand market, someone offered three million to buy the first row of tickets..."
Kristen interrupted directly and said, "I will go, keep the ticket! Just send someone to pick me up later."
Sharon agreed: "Okay, then you take a rest, I'll leave first!"
Christine lay on the sofa, covered herself with a random piece of clothing and closed her eyes.
Sharon left two assistants to take care of Christine and turned around and left. She immediately contacted the company's publicity department and began to announce that Christine would release two works next week.
The company quickly hyped up the news and announced it to the public right away - Christine felt the pressure from Professor Wang Qian for the first time. She worked hard this week and finally completed two songs, which will be released together tomorrow, in an attempt to defeat Professor Wang Qian again. Let us support Christine and defend the dignity and honor of our North American music scene.
There were no surprises.
Christine's management company and record company directly promoted Christine's new song together with Wang Qian...
This news indeed instantly caused a stir in the entire world of pop music.
Many big-name singers who are about to release songs tomorrow feel tremendous pressure.
The four Voice of China contestants will have twelve works, and now Kristen has also announced that she will release two works!
The competition for the top ten spots is so fierce...
…
Wang Qian and the band members had lunch at the hotel, went to the recording studio for a rehearsal in the afternoon, and then brought the team to the performance venue for the final on-site practice.
Same as the previous times.
When Wang Qian's car arrived at the scene.
The entire scene was still crowded with people, even more lively than the previous times.
At a glance, there were almost no end to the crowd. At least tens of thousands of people had gathered outside Staples Center. Among them were entertainment media and serious media from all over the world, as well as self-media internet celebrities who were trying to take advantage of the popularity.
As soon as Wang Qian's car appeared, the atmosphere at the entire scene was ignited, like a boiling oil pan and exploding water.
The roads were completely blocked.
Wang Qian and other band members in the car were already accustomed to this kind of scene. They just glanced at it casually and then went back to resting or checking their phone messages.
Wang Qian also looked at the sales figures on the current list and looked calm, because it was already number one and there was no fluctuation.
However, when he saw the cumulative sales figures of the domestic Qianqian Jingting platform, he still smiled.
Nothing to say!
The folks are still awesome.
And this is.
There were also bursts of lively shouts outside.
Everyone in the car couldn't help but look up.
Just see.
There were endless pairs of hands raised high.
The singing voices gradually gathered together louder and louder.
